SE/B12/03: Limping child
 
Child standing
Back to St Emlyn's Reception

Full (passive) ROM in hips, no hip tenderness on palpation, sitting on edge of chair comfortably (I am not suspecting the hip joints).

Only "positive" sign: she walks on her heel!

So, the hip films are normal and to be honest the gait does not fit with a hip complaint.

Foot X-ray anyone?
